Chapter 1 Star Official

Seeing the young man barge into the restaurant, Sofia immediately went into battle mode, erecting a wind wall between them, while reaching out to make a grasping motion towards the young star official.

The surrounding airflow condensed with her strength, and an invisible hand held the young man in its palm like a tight cage. As long as Sofia's thoughts moved, the enormous air pressure would crush the young man into powder…

Subjected to the restraint, the young man with his arms drooping, rubbed his thumb and middle finger together, snapping his fingers.

With a crisp sound, it seemed that some kind of rule disappeared in the dark. Sofia saw in astonishment that the air current palm she had condensed actually penetrated the young man's body and then collapsed.

"Sofia, he is the Lord of the Sun we want to support!"

Chen Shu's words made Sofia's vigilance, fighting spirit, hostility, and solemnity all vanish like smoke. She widened her eyes in astonishment.

This young man is Qi Shishe, and the president is cultivating the Lord of the Sun. Sofia looked up and down at the young man, as if to see through every cell of his body.

At this time, she realized that the young man looked a little familiar. She seemed to have seen him somewhere, but she couldn't remember where.

Sofia turned to look at the president and said, "Who is he?"

Chen Shu smiled and said, "You should have seen him, seen him in the information. His Lingjing ID is called Yuanshi Tianzun."

Sofia suddenly turned her head and exclaimed, "Yuanshi Tianzun? No, didn't Yuanshi Tianzun die?"

She remembered Zhang Yuanqing's face. She had indeed seen it in the information, but it was a well-known fact that Yuanshi Tianzun had returned to Lingjing two months ago.

"How could the Lord of the Sun cultivated by the president fall so easily?" Chen Shu stared at her son, whom she hadn't seen for a year, with a smile on her face.

"You finally agreed to see me. Sit down, I'll have the chef make you a steak." Her tone was as strong as ever, not asking if he had eaten or what he wanted to eat.

Zhang Yuanqing also retorted as always, "I don't want to eat it!"

Chen Shu had already beckoned the maid to tell the chef.

Zhang Yuanqing pulled out a chair and sat down, getting straight to the point: "I've seen the family scum."

He hinted to Chen Shu that he already knew everything.

The elegant, gentle, and refined Chen Shu nodded. "I never intended to hide it from you all the time. When you were a Saint, I wanted to confess to you, but he insisted on stopping me."

"Confess what to me?" Zhang Yuanqing looked at her with deep eyes.

"Confess why I haven't cared about him all these years, confess that I'm so busy that I don't come home all year round, and I'm too lazy to make phone calls..."

If it was a year ago, Zhang Yuanqing would definitely ask this question, but now he had lost interest in complaining about why his mother neglected him.

These were things that children cared about, but he was no longer a child.

However, after so many years of bad mother-son relationship, he couldn't immediately let go of his grudges and put on a show of motherly love and filial piety with Chen Shu.

Sofia looked at Zhang Yuanqing and then at Chen Shu. Her intuition told her that the relationship between the president and Yuanshi Tianzun was extraordinary.

"He is my son!" Noticing her subordinate's scrutiny, Chen Shu smiled slightly and introduced him.

"Can you change your wording once?" Zhang Yuanqing raised his eyebrows and said.

Chen Shu followed suit, "Okay."

Zhang Yuanqing rolled his eyes!

Sofia was shocked. Yuanshi Tianzun was the president's son, the most watched genius in the Second District, the rising young powerhouse like a comet, was actually the president's son!!

If this was spread to the organization, the entire Jishi Society would be in an uproar!

Chen Shu said again: "She is Sofia, the master of the Jishi Society. She joined the Jishi Society when she was still an Extraordinary Xingzhe. She started as my assistant and has been here until now."

Sofia was a master she had cultivated with her own hands. Zhang Yuanqing looked at the ascetic dresser and then at his queen-like mother. "I can see that you two have the same style. If you haven't been together for a few years, your temperament and aura wouldn't be so compatible!"

"Sofia, go to the living room and wait. I have something to say to him," Chen Shu said.

Sofia nodded and got up to leave the restaurant. After she walked away, Chen Shu picked up the glass and took a sip of warm water. "Your uncle should have told you everything. You came here because you wanted your mother to hug you and kiss you, or do you have any doubts that need me to supplement?"

The corner of Zhang Yuanqing's mouth twitched: "Where is your husband's doppelganger?"

Chen Shu frowned and said unhappily, "That's your father."

"Isn't the father of a dog also a dog!" Zhang Yuanqing retorted sharply.

Chen Shu sensibly did not continue the topic of mutual harm and said, "Your father's doppelganger is in a very safe place. You don't need to know yet. The matter of resurrecting him is not something you need to worry about. At least at this stage, you don't need to consider resurrecting your father, because the difficulty is too high."

Zhang Yuanqing didn't say anything pretentious like "Why can't I know?" or "That's my father". He changed the subject.

"Do you know where Chu Shang and Master Wuhen's doppelgangers are?" Chen Shu looked at her son gently.

"Don't ask such stupid questions!" Zhang Yuanqing took a deep breath, thought for a while and said, "Tell me about your past with Zhang Tianshi. I'll consider what to ask after I listen."

Ordinary mothers might be taboo about talking to their sons about their youthful love affairs, but Chen Shu wouldn't. She opened her mouth and said, "Your father used to be an auxiliary police officer when he was young. He was very good. Whether it was his investigation ability or his personal martial power, he was outstanding. Your grandfather admired him very much and repeatedly wanted to transfer his certificate to him, but he was rejected."

"Once, your father assisted the Public Security Bureau in solving a major case. Old Chen invited him to dinner at home. That was the first time I saw him. From then on, he kept coming to my house, inviting me to watch turtle shadows, go to dance halls to dance, and sing karaoke. Over time, we fell in love."

"Your grandparents both agreed to this marriage. The only thing they were dissatisfied with was that Zhang Zizhen refused to settle his household registration in Songhai, and he refused to become a full-time employee. He took a meager salary, did the hardest and most tiring work, and was always sunny like a fool!"

Zhang Yuanqing didn't expect his old man to be an auxiliary police officer: "Why didn't he become a full-time employee?"

Chen Shu smiled and said, "At that time, he was already... One day, he said that he was a direct disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect and that he had the important task of maintaining world peace. In order to better punish evil and promote good, he became an auxiliary police officer. The reason why he didn't become a full-time employee was because if he ate public meals, he would be subject to public constraints, which didn't conform to the Xiaoyao concept!"

As always, Zhang Yuanqing sighed: "A wild Xingzhe can become an auxiliary police officer in a grand manner. The system was indeed chaotic back then."

"The social system was chaotic back then, but when it comes to Lingjing Xingzhe, whether it's the government or the organization, they all attach great importance to it and never slack off. Your father was able to get into the Public Security Bureau as an auxiliary police officer because he has another identity."

At this time, the chef came over with the fried steak. Chen Shu stopped talking, and after the chef placed the knives and forks and left, Chen Shu motioned for her son to taste it!

Zhang Yuanqing perfunctorily cut a piece and said while chewing: "It's too greasy, continue talking."

"Your father was able to show his abilities to the fullest in the Public Security Bureau as an auxiliary police officer because Gou Zhanglao was protecting him."

Chen Shu smiled and said, "He used to be Gou Zhanglao's informant."

So that's how it is. Zhang Yuanqing solved a doubt in his heart. "No wonder the Xiaoyao Three didn't know Zhang Tianshi's true identity, but Gou Zhanglao knew it clearly. Back then, Gou Zhanglao played the roles of backer, thigh, and elder."

"Later, as your father's level increased and the enemies he encountered became more and more powerful, he became more and more careful in hiding himself." Chen Shu said calmly about the past, telling about the bits and pieces of his life.

"Most of the things he did, I didn't know, and I never asked. Everything changed after the battle for the Light Compass," Chen Shu said with a look of remembrance, recollection, and deep taste of the past.

"One day, your father came home covered in blood, saying that he had gotten into trouble, entered a place he shouldn't have entered, and came into contact with things he shouldn't have come into contact with. He was seriously ill and never went out again. We spent a peaceful time. During that time, I became pregnant with you. And his body became worse and worse, no longer as radiant as it used to be!"

"Later, the Chu family was exterminated, and your father brought back Jiang Yu'er, whose real name was Chu Yu. Jiang was her mother's surname. She couldn't continue to be surnamed Chu, and she didn't want to be surnamed Chen, so she followed her birth mother's surname."

"After the Chu family was exterminated, your father often woke up at night, covered in cold sweat. He didn't know what he was afraid of. I asked him several times, but he refused to say. I would only occasionally hear him muttering to himself, 'Impossible, there's no way I couldn't have calculated it, there's no way I couldn't have calculated it!'"

Zhang Yuanqing frowned. Zhang Zizhen was already a peak Master at that time. Even if he didn't major in Starry Sky, he could see the evolution of all things and the direction of the world through astrology, but it seemed that there was something he hadn't calculated, so he was brooding over it!

What happened at that time node?

"Did you ask your uncle afterwards?" Zhang Yuanqing asked if he didn't understand, feeling that there was no need to imagine and guess.

Chen Shu shook her head. "Your father wouldn't tell your uncle what he didn't even tell me."

After a pause, she continued, "Not long after the Chu family was exterminated, he began to go out frequently again, not knowing what he was investigating. Suddenly, one day, he said that he was going to do something big. If he didn't come back, he would let me prepare and take my parents to a foreign country!"

Simply outrageous!
